Normally HAWA materials need not be procured with account assignment.Only NLAG and UNBW will be procured against account assignment.But how evet other materials can also be procured against account assignment.

Qty updations and value updations in the material type decides the account assignment at PO.(at sprologistics generalmateril masterbasic settingsmaterial types--define attributes of the material types check the qty and value updations for that valuation area) and decide accordingly or provide the account assignment in the PO)

hi,

As you are mentioning Material Type is -HAWA

Hawa material will have Valuation class as -Trading material

If we have Not ticked -Value and Qty updating for the HAWA material type then eventhrough we maintain Accounting Views. -In configuration

We get the error as a account assignment cat mandatory.

Please maintain Qty and Value update Tick then you can create PO

Hi

Normally Trading goods, u'll not keep it in ur stock. Based on the customer requirement u'll procure it and send it to the customer.

For this account assignment category is must.

Hi Raman

Agreed to your point, however when you inter into a contract with long position you generaly keep those goods, or say the goods are in trasit for 10 days and you would like to see the sales option before it reaches the port and saleble...

Check in OMS2 screen for the Material type and check the indicator for Value and Quantity update for the Plant.

Hi Ranjeet,

I think the tick for value update is missing in the material type you are using.

I hope it will help you

Hi,

This error is coming as while creating PO, system is expecting Account Assignment category. So you have to maintain account assignment category in PO for eg A for Asset, K for Cost Center etc. This is due to the fact that it is mandatory to use Account Assignment for the particular Material Type which you are using.

Hope this helps.

Thnx.

Hi Ranjeet,

I think you are purchasing matl with Account Assignment Catagory thats why the message comes.

If acc. ass. catagory is A then mention the proper Asset no. in acc. assignment Tab.

If acc. ass. catagory is K mention particular cost centre & so on......

Hope it clears.

Hi,

If you have already maintained the accounting vies for that material, Then goto SPRO-MM-PURCHASING-VALUATION AND ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT-ACCOUNT DETERMINATION-ACCOUNT DETERMINATION WITHOUT WIZARD-GROUP TOGETHER VALUATION CLASS ,where you maintain the valuation grouping code for that plant and save it. Then create PO it will work.
